6/6 HBCD Prenatal Experiences and Longitudinal Development (PRELUDE) Consortium Vanderbilt Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY CUTTING, LAURIE E (contact); OSMUNDSON, SARAH SCHEIDERICH Vanderbilt, TN 2021
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The objective of the HBCD PRELUDE (Prenatal Experiences and Longitudinal Development) multi-site consortium is to characterize typical brain development from birth through childhood. All sites in this consortium will measure the influence of key biological and environmental factors on child social, cognitive, and emotional development. Researchers will assess how prenatal exposure to opioids and other substances, as well as other adverse environmental factors, affect brain development and other child health outcomes. The Vanderbilt University site will enroll a diverse sample of mother-infant dyads reflective of the racial, ethnic, and economic composition of the demographics of Tennessee, including rural areas dramatically affected by the opioid crisis.

22/24 Healthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids NIDA VIRGINIA POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE AND STATE UNIVERSITY HOWELL, BRITTANY ROLLINS (contact); BELL, MARTHA ANN ; HOSIG, KATHRYN W Virginia 2022
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) will establish a normative model of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life. All sites in the HBCD-NC will carry out a common research protocol and will assemble and distribute a comprehensive research dataset to the scientific community. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. Most participants will be recruited in the second trimester of pregnancy, with a smaller subset recruited at birth, and followed for the first 10 years of life.

Hub and Spoke Opioid Treatment Networks: 2nd Generation Approaches to Improve Medication Treatment for Opioid Use Disorders Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction Behavioral Research to Improve Medication-Based Treatment NIDA Brandeis University REIF, SHARON Waltham, MA 2019
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative Limited Competition: Behavioral Research to Improve MAT: Ancillary Studies to Enhance Behavioral or Social Interventions to Improve Adherence to Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioid Use Disorders (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-AT-19-007
Summary:

Washington state used federal Opioid-STR funding to develop the Washington State Hub and Spoke Model (H&S), an integrated care model to expand access to OUD medications by incorporating primary care and substance use treatment programs, referral organizations, nurse care managers, and care navigators. Based on the initial success, Washington provided more funding and developed a second-generation, low-barrier H&S model, to place medication initiation sites in nontraditional settings, such as emergency departments, syringe exchanges, jails, and homeless shelters, and to have community partners offer OUD medication maintenance. The study will determine the implementation and effectiveness of the new H&S model, maintaining a hybrid effectiveness-implementation approach, and utilizing social network analysis to understand how H&S networks develop to serve the OUD population. The findings will demonstrate what makes the H&S model effective for increasing OUD medication treatment, improving outcomes for people with OUD, and reaching individuals who may not seek treatment.

Treatment of Co-Occurring Opioid Use Disorder with Alcohol, Other Drug, and/or Mental Disorders: The Role of Innovative Models and Integrated Care New Strategies to Prevent and Treat Opioid Addiction Optimizing Care for People with Opioid Use Disorder and Mental Health Conditions NIDA BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY REIF, SHARON Waltham, MA; 2020
NOFO Title: Notice of Special Interest: HEAL Supplements to Improve the Treatment and Management of Common Co-occurring Conditions and Suicide Risk in People Affected by the Opioid Crisis
NOFO Number: NOT-MH-20-025
Summary:

People with opioid use disorders (OUD) have high rates of co-occurring alcohol, stimulant and other drug disorders, as well as mental disorders. Traditionally, treatment for OUD has been ?siloed? even though these high rates of co-occurring conditions emphasize the need for comprehensive treatment to address holistic needs. As the opioid crisis continues, attention to the whole person and access to comprehensive mental health and substance use treatment as well as primary care is needed. This study aims to better understand co-occurring mental health disorders, alcohol use disorders, and/or other substance use disorders among people with OUD, in the context of innovative integrated care networks for people with OUD. This study examines how innovative OUD treatment models work for individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use by 1) assessing mental health treatment quality measures and outcomes; 2) testing how these innovative treatment models compare to other OUD treatment for people who have OUD and other substance use disorders; and 3) considering the ways people with OUD access co-occurring disorder care. The findings from this study will provide needed information to improve mental health, alcohol, and other substance use treatment for individuals with OUD, whether or not they are in OUD treatment and may provide information to help move the system from siloed efforts to truly integrated care
